Douluo: The Op-Op Fruit, skilled at researching them

Chapter 8.8: The Best Support (Please continue reading)

After hearing the information about Luo's Yama Martial Soul, everyone present felt a strange sensation.

They had never heard of any martial spirit in the world that could possess such a strange ability.

It has not been attached with any spirit rings yet, but as long as the user is within the range of the ability, the user can instantly move to the vicinity of the martial spirit.

This ability is only average; it has some outstanding aspects and can be used to perform many fancy maneuvers, but it's not particularly outstanding.

However, what is most puzzling is the "side effect" that comes with the Yama Martial Soul.

The most unique aspect of this "side effect" is that even if the user can attack the enemy, even if they cut off the enemy's head with a knife, they cannot cause any damage to the enemy; they can only produce a "split" effect.

This effect is so bizarre that they can't understand what use this ability to not harm others can possibly have.

The reason why these Soul Masters strive to cultivate their Martial Souls and desperately improve their own cultivation is simply to harm others, heal others, control others, and defend against others.

That is, they are divided into offensive, healing, control, and defensive types.

What role can a martial soul that can neither harm nor heal others, nor control or defend itself, play in a fighting team, even if the user can teleport using the martial soul?

Is it because of the mutated martial soul?

Everyone guessed this in their hearts without prior agreement.

After hearing about Luo's martial soul ability, Xiao Chenyu couldn't help but burst into laughter, mocking him:

"I thought your martial soul was so powerful, but it turns out it only has this kind of bizarre ability? The reason I was careless and lost to you just now was simply because I didn't understand your martial soul's abilities. Now that I know your abilities, there's no way I'll lose to you again."

"Shall we have another match?"

Luo said coldly, raising Yama with one hand, the blade tip pointing at Xiao Chenyu's face, his face showing no fear.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Chenyu simply waved his hand and said nonchalantly:

"I, Boss Xiao, am a man of my word. Since I lost to you, I won't go back on my word. At worst, I'll just avoid you every time I see you."

"after all--"

He paused, a contemptuous smile appearing on his face:

"Who would bother arguing with a worthless Soul Master?"

After saying that, Xiao Chenyu turned around and called his underlings to leave the playground and go outside the academy for lunch. Before leaving, he gave Luo a contemptuous smile.

Luo didn't care much about his taunts. After canceling the Enma Martial Soul, he walked alone towards the cafeteria like a lone hero who had defeated a dragon.

Behind him, Wang Sheng and Tang San exchanged a glance and quickly led the other work-study students to follow and surround Luo.

Regardless, Luo's victory over Xiao Chenyu was a great honor for them, the work-study students, and they were naturally happy to see it.

The "information" that Luo just revealed about the Enma Martial Soul is obviously false. The Enma Martial Soul has no abilities at all; it is simply a rusty katana.

The martial soul ability he deliberately displayed this time was merely one of the abilities of the Op-Op Fruit.

Luo's real purpose in challenging Xiao Chenyu today is actually only twofold:

Firstly, he was well aware of the conflict between the work-study students and the other aristocratic students. In order not to let others affect his future studies and life, he decided to nip the problem in the bud.

After that challenge, Luo has already established his "reputation" among these trainees.

In the future, if any ignorant noble students want to cause him trouble, they should think back to the scene of Xiao Chenyu being beheaded today, and see if they can accept having their own head cut off and used as a football.

Secondly, Law deliberately revealed these two abilities in front of everyone as a disguise for the full power of the Op-Op Fruit.

The full power of the Op-Op Fruit is so overpowered that it's considered a Devil Fruit worth "a Pirate King"!

Instant teleportation, sound erasure, limb transplantation, puncture vibration, object manipulation, antibacterial armor, anti-aging surgery...

The Op-Op Fruit is a combination of the partial abilities of many Devil Fruits!

The "Flying Thunder God" skill that Luo used in the previous competition didn't actually require Enma as a medium; he could appear anywhere in the "ROOM" space.

Of course, if it's within a short distance, one can indeed teleport at will, as long as one isn't afraid of misjudging the point of one's gaze.

If it's a long-distance displacement and you want to ensure the accuracy of the landing point, it's best for Law to use "Heavenly Hand Power" to swap with the object at the landing point to ensure that the landing point is not wrong.

With just this "Heavenly Hand Power" teleportation skill, Luo has already established himself as invincible in the Soul Fighting Competition!

Of course, if Luo were to use "Heavenly Hand Power" to teleport to a small, inanimate object by himself, the soul power consumed would not be too much.

The latest novel is first published here!

With Luo's current level eight soul power cultivation, he can teleport himself at least a dozen times!

If he wanted to switch places with someone whose soul power level was higher than his, he would need to expend an enormous amount of soul power, and it might not even be possible.

Just like how Trafalgar Law in One Piece wanted to move Kaido and Big Mom, but couldn't because their Haki was too strong.

If a Soul Master with much stronger Soul Power were to resist, it would be difficult for Luo to forcibly switch their positions or cut their bodies open with a knife.

Even for a Soul Master like Xiao Chenyu, whose cultivation level was only eleven and who was only one ring high, Luo had to use nearly a third of his soul power to successfully use the Op-Op Fruit ability to cut off his head.

However, if this Soul Master is willing to cooperate with Luo, then he will enjoy the most powerful support experience in the world.

On Onigashima in Wano Country, when Kaido and Big Mom teamed up to fight the five Supernovas, even the mighty Kaido couldn't help but complain that the power of the Op-Op Fruit was disgusting.

The first time the Big Mom was knocked off the island was when Trafalgar Law first swapped Prometheus, who was beneath her, with a giant rock and then pushed her off the island.

As for the later battle where Trafalgar Law and Kid teamed up to fight Big Mom, it was entirely thanks to the awakened technique of the Op-Op Fruit, "Piercing Wave," that they dealt tons of true damage to Big Mom.

Finally, after silencing Big Mom's "soul spell" with "silence removal," Kidd had the opportunity to use the railgun to forcibly push the heavily injured Big Mom off Onigashima.

If we were to choose the best support character in the Onigashima battle, it would definitely be Trafalgar Law, who possesses the power of the Op-Op Fruit!
